Synopsis

Because things don't always work out on Valentine's Day.

Love hurts, but you know what hurts more than love? Getting dumped. We all need to be comforted, and we all need to wallow-for just a little while, anyway-which is why Dumped is the perfect gift for your favorite dumpee, as well as a perfectly acceptable addition to your very own (suddenly half-empty) bookshelf. Think of it as a sweet, unassuming, illustrated tool with which you can lance the boil of humiliation growing on your soul.

Touchingly illustrated and tenderly narrated, Dumped will slide easily under your tear-stained pillow. Each page contains a sentiment and a drawing that you might photocopy and hang up on your fridge or place in one of your many empty picture frames as a reminder that things will get better. Dumped will reassure you that you're not alone during this season when the person who knew you best, who got to know the real you, decided they'd rather spend Valentine's Day somewhere else. So why not take a break from the misery and have a little laugh at your own expense? We promise you can start crying again when you're done.
